Best Answer

People usually live from two to three years with colon cancer, but this is only the most likely answer. Cancer sometimes comes from the genes of relatives. In other cases you can have gene mutation and another possibility is by putting carcinogens in your body.

Does colon cancer occur most often in the large or small intestines?

Colon cancer is a type of cancer that occurs in the large intestine (colon), which is the final part of the digestive tract12. The large intestine is about 5 feet long and absorbs water and salt from the food that passes through it. The small intestine, also called the small bowel, is a long tube that connects the stomach and the large intestine. It is about 20 feet long and is responsible for digesting and absorbing nutrients from the food that enters it. Cancer of the small intestine is much less common than cancer of the large intestine. There are different types of small bowel cancer, such as adenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine tumors, lymphoma, and sarcoma. Therefore, colon cancer occurs most often in the large intestine, not the small intestine.
